Squinting eyes are monsters.

Now, Yan Yurou truly believes this sentence.

"Yan Yurou, you're welcome, just like your own home." Mrs. Zhou took off her coat, tied her apron, and began to get busy. "Zhou, should you take your classmates to your room for a visit?"

From beginning to end, Yan Yurou just had the mentality of finishing things early and finishing early, and didn't plan to have too much contact with the people here. But...... Even she didn't expect to be taken to Zhou's house in a daze.

"Huh? Why do I have to show her around my room? ”

"Quick—go—"

Mother commanded without question.

Yan Yurou suddenly felt funny, is this still the Zhou she knows outside?

Zhou, who noticed her subtle expression, glared at her fiercely, and sighed without enthusiasm, "Let's go, I'll take you on a tour." ”

Counting Mike's, this is the third boy's room that Smoke and Rain enter. Zhou's room is very simple and clean, and it seems to have been tidied up often. Like Mike, Lin Tianxiang their room...... If there is no one to help tidy up, I guess there will be nowhere to put your feet.

Well, but that's fine, at least that way, there will be more time with him.

At this time, Yan Yurou's gaze stayed on the photo placed on Zhou's desk.

It was a picture of a father and a child.

"Your father ......," Yan Yurou frowned, "what is it for?" ”

"Reporter, what's wrong?" Zhou, who didn't notice Yan Yurou's expression, replied casually, "He was also attracted by the strange events in the town like you, and fell in love with my mother at first sight, and then he had me...... That bastard dad. ”

Just walked away.

"Is your father really a journalist?"

Zhou looked at Yan Yurou in wonder, and found that her expression was unprecedentedly strange, "Is there any problem?" ”

Yan Yurou was still staring at the photo, and Zhou found that her eyes were locked on the clothes her father was wearing. It was a black T-shirt with a pair of angel wings painted with silver lines in the center, and between the wings was an ancient sword.

"Your father is not a journalist, but an agent of our organization."

Zhou was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Judging from the mysterious origin and purpose of this girl, as well as her skills and cold eyes that were enough to freeze people, he was really not surprised that she was an agent killer or something.

But his father was also an agent from the same organization as her, and he had been hiding it for so many years, which he really couldn't accept.

"You ...... What kind of organization is it? ”

"I can tell you, but on condition that you give me information that you know, about this town."

"Deal." Zhou leaned against the wall and nodded slightly. The reason why he agreed without hesitation was that he still considered it. In exchange for his father's true identity, he felt that there was nothing wrong with exchanging the information of the town.

Perhaps it could also be of great help to him in finding his missing father.

But......

"Your father and I both come from an international organization, Hanging Sword."

"It was created to deal with paranormal events as well as unconventional crime."

"And I have come because I have been invited by the English Hanging Sword to come to your aid, and as for your father...... I haven't seen it at headquarters, I think it's from the place, so I don't have any information about your father. ”

Although this kind of thing has been thought of a long time ago, Zhou, who has a trace of expectation for it, is still a little gloomy.

"Well...... At least I know what you do. ”

"So, what about the clues I want?"

"You're really anxious...... Zhou shook his head helplessly, walked to the desk, took out a key from his pocket and opened a locked drawer, "These are some of the materials left by my father before he disappeared, but please don't get too much hope." ”

As Zhou said, the materials his father collected were similar to those provided by Ivy and in the school library.

Still, she found two things to look out for.

"Fear of the Old Gods......"

In Zhou's father's notes, this sentence is mentioned repeatedly.

The note also mentions that Zhou's father, a "reporter" named Zhou Haifeng, has repeatedly searched the town for the well into which the witch's heir was thrown, and believes that the well may be the key to the town's curse and the door to communication with the old gods.

- Peep into the abyss, and the abyss will peep at you.

"Maybe it ceases to exist with the passage of time, but there will always be clues."

“…… There is no progress, as if it does not exist in this world. ”

Yan Yurou frowned, Zhou Haifeng obviously knew something, he was obsessed with finding the "Ancient God" was the best Zhengming. But she couldn't understand that myths and stories made up by people really existed?

Thinking limits one's imagination.

I remember that when she was on her first mission, Lin Tianxiang spoke as her partner.

Something that is not understood and has no science does not mean that it does not exist, but it only makes things confusing without finding a scientific basis.

If we see the essence of things on the surface, perhaps, the truth is simpler than science itself.

No matter how unbelievable something is in front of you, you can try to believe half of it first, which will help solve the mystery.

"Ahem, although it's rude to disturb your thinking."

Zhou's hand was holding an old newspaper and handed it to Yan Yurou, "Since you are an expert in dealing with supernatural events, I don't know if you have ever seen this thing?" ”

It was a mutilated newspaper, many of the words on it had become blurred, and the yellowed newspaper had become soft from the wet weather, and a slight pinch would have pierced a hole. Yan Yurou had to carefully spread out the newspaper and read it.

The newspaper is indeed a few years old, and in terms of typography, it does not look like the famous British "Times" or "The Guardian", but more like the newspaper published by the own newspaper office of a rural town.

Although many places are unrecognizable, Yan Yurou can still see that this newspaper is distributed by the town itself.

In general, the date of publication of this newspaper is unknown, and the content of the distribution is unknown.

"Why didn't you give it to me earlier?"

But it was such a newspaper that allowed Yan Yurou to find a breakthrough in this case.

"Uh...... I just remembered, too. Zhou noticed a hint of excitement in the girl's eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Do you know anything?" ”

Yan Yurou pointed to the only place in the newspaper that was relatively clear—a black-and-white picture.

"UFOs spotted over town!"

Judging from this photograph and the clear text of the article, it should be that the author inadvertently photographed a suspicious human figure flashing over the town.

Maybe the photographer happened to be in a good position at the time, so the photo can be more clearly identified - it is a woman riding a broomstick.

But apparently the people in the small town did not believe it, thinking that it was a fraud by the newspaper or the author himself.

"She's a witch."

"And she's the only witch in the world who can fly magic."
